BioMedNewsBreaks — Zacks Research Issues Business Update as Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Continues Enrollment in Confirmatory Phase 3 HyBryte Trial

May 15, 2025 11:56:42

Soligenix (NASDAQ: SNGX), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company targeting rare diseases, was spotlighted this week in a Zacks Small-Cap Research report that presented a favorable analysis, noting that the company’s Phase 3 cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (“CTCL”) study is continuing and that the trial has a high probability of success. 

According to the report, Soligenix is conducting a Phase 3 FLASH2 trial of HyBryte(TM) in patients with CTCL. The Zacks report noted that the FLASH2 trial is similar in design to the recently completed successful Phase 3 FLASH trial. The one key difference between the trials is that in the FLASH trial patients were treated for three cycles of six weeks each, with a two-week break in between cycles. The primary efficacy endpoint for the FLASH trial was measured after the first treatment cycle. 

“In the FLASH2 trial, patients will be treated for 18 consecutive weeks before the primary efficacy endpoint is assessed,” the report noted. “Based on the results from the FLASH trial, we believe the FLASH2 trial has a high probability of success, and we anticipate topline results in 2026.”

Study Reveals Early Development of Pediatric Brain Tumors in Specialized Nerve Cells

May 9, 2025 09:05:00

Medulloblastoma is a commonly occurring pediatric brain cancer in kids and adolescents. The cancer develops within the cerebellum, the part of the brain responsible for coordinating movement and other functions. These tumors enlarge quickly, can grow into nearby tissues, and in some cases, can metastasize. The variations in these tumors make it challenging to find appropriate treatments.

That next course of action could, hopefully, include administering novel treatments from companies like CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) that are focused on…

  • Nutriband’s AVERSA(TM) technology is advancing toward commercialization as the first abuse-deterrent transdermal fentanyl patch
  • Recent FDA regulatory changes underscore the urgent need for safer opioid delivery methods and responsible prescribing
  • Strategic milestones with partner Kindeva and a strengthened global IP portfolio position Nutriband for long-term growth

A Market Demanding Safer Opioid Solutions

The opioid crisis remains a critical public health challenge in the U.S. and globally, prompting a series of new regulatory measures designed to improve safety and reduce misuse.

Study: Women with Lung Cancer Have Worse Outcomes Due to Genes Linked to Pregnancy

May 6, 2025 09:05:00

According to a study conducted recently at Memorial Sloan Kettering (MSK) Cancer Center, lung cancer co-opts some genes usually involved in helping fetuses to grow. The lung cancer leverages these genes to evade the immune system of the patient. The researchers found that because of this, women in whom these genes were activated tended to have poorer outcomes.

As more is uncovered about the way the immune system works to keep tumors from developing or malfunctions and creates an opportunity for cancers to grow, many immune therapies are likely to be successfully developed by companies like Calidi Biotherapeutics Inc. (NYSE American: CLDI) seeking to empower the…

Data Shows When Hospitals Exit MA Plans, Enrollees Also Leave

May 2, 2025 09:05:00

For a variety of reasons, hospitals can disagree with Medicare Advantage insurance providers and they part ways. When a hospital cancels or fails to renew its contract with a health insurer, the patients who had coverage with that insurer often have to choose between staying with that insurer and getting care from the shrinking network of providers or ditch the MA plan. Reports indicate that thousands of patients ditch MA plans once the health insurer and hospital fail to continue their relationship.

The administrative burdens and disagreements about finances also play a role in causing some hospitals to exit their contracts with MA plan providers. The writing is on the wall; MA plan providers like Astiva Health need to look at what is…

BioMedNewsBreaks — Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Moves Forward to Strengthen the Case for HyBryte(TM)

April 29, 2025 11:48:28

Soligenix (NASDAQ: SNGX), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company, is advancing its phase 3 replication study (“FLASH2”) for HyBryte(TM), a novel photodynamic therapy designed to treat early-stage cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (“CTCL”). Building on the success of a prior phase 3 trial, HyBryte(TM)—which uses synthetic hypericin activated by safe visible light—offers a potentially game-changing approach by providing a noninvasive, well-tolerated alternative that targets malignant T-cells with precision. With patient enrollment underway and interim analysis expected in early 2026, the study is designed to potentially meet the stringent requirements of regulatory agencies in order to strengthen the case for HyBryte(TM) as a commercially available treatment. This milestone emphasizes Soligenix’s broader strategy of using innovative therapeutic approaches to tackle rare and difficult-to-treat diseases. The progress of HyBryte(TM) also underscores the importance of photodynamic therapy as a new and effective modality that could potentially be applied to other dermatological and oncological conditions.

BioMedNewsBreaks — Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Announces Positive Data, Continued Advancement of HyBryte(TM)

April 14, 2025 14:06:55

Soligenix (NASDAQ: SNGX) is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing products to treat rare diseases where there is an unmet medical need. The company today announced interim results from the ongoing open-label, investigator-initiated study (“IIS”) evaluating extended HyBryte(TM) (synthetic hypericin) treatment for up to 54 weeks in patients with early-stage cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (“CTCL”). 

“We are pleased with these recent study results, giving patients an opportunity to access the therapy in an open-label setting,” said Soligenix CEO and President Christopher J. Schaber. “CTCL is an incredibly difficult to treat orphan disease and remains an area of unmet medical need with a very limited number of safe and effective therapies. Following the initial Phase 3 FLASH study, which demonstrated the safety and efficacy of shorter courses of HyBryte(TM) therapy, we are pleased to see that continuing treatment for longer time periods is resulting in the anticipated improved outcomes for patients. The majority of patients show a strong treatment response by week 18, a noticeable advantage over other therapies that may take six to 12 months to show improvement. As the body of compelling data continues to grow in support of this novel therapy, we look forward to continuing to work with Dr. Kim on this important study as well as advancing enrollment in the 80-patient confirmatory Phase 3 FLASH 2 replication study. We will plan to provide additional updates on the IIS as data becomes available.”

Blocking an Enzyme in Melanoma Patients Could Overcome Resistance to Immunotherapy

April 11, 2025 09:05:00

Approximately 65% of patients diagnosed with melanoma are unresponsive to immunotherapy. New research suggests that blocking the HPGDS enzyme can be a viable way to improve patients’ response to immunotherapy since the activity of this enzyme contributes to immunotherapy resistance. This approach can also increase immunotherapy response in other types of cancer with similar attributes to those of melanoma.

Given that this research was preclinical, its findings can only hold concrete promise if they are replicated in clinical studies. There’s still plenty to do before this new treatment approach can be tested on human subjects. In the meantime, immune-oncology companies like Calidi Biotherapeutics Inc. (NYSE American: CLDI) that already have new…
